Monocyte Chemotactic Protein 1, Recombinant, Rat (MCP-1) |
10ug |
| Growth Factors, Cytokines | Storage: -20°CShipping: Blue Ice |

Source: Recombinant corresponding to rat Monocyte Chemotactic Protein 1 expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~14kD Endotoxin: ~0.1ng/ug Biological Activity: ED50=1.0-10ng/ml. The biological activity was determined by measuring the dose dependent chemotaxis with human THP-1 cells. The optimal concentration should be determined for each specific application by an initial dose-response assay. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Stable for 12 months at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile dH2O. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Molecular Weight: ~14kD |
Purity: ~95% (SDS-PAGE) Concentration: Not determined Form: Supplied as a lyophilized powder. BSA free. Reconstitute with sterile dH2O to 0.1-1mg/ml. Important Note: This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications without the expressed written authorization of United States Biological. |
